Is there a specific question that you are uncertain about? Perhaps you might get more of a response if your inquiry were more focused?
Also, instead of just providing your answer, it would help if you also provided your reasoning why you selected your answer, and why you didn't select the other choices.
Or you could do your own research or at least post these on a forum that actually is for SAFe exams.
This forum should be used for day to day scenarios, not "hey I need help answering this question so I can pass this exam and never contribute to anything on this forum."
